Pressure Vessels
With very few books adequately addressing ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code, and other international code issues, Pressure Vessels: Design and Practice provides a comprehensive, in-depth guide on everything engineers need to know. With emphasis on the requirements of the ASME this consummate work examines the design of pressure vessel com
Mechanics of Composite Materials
In 1997, Dr. Kaw introduced the first edition of Mechanics of Composite Materials, receiving high praise for its comprehensive scope and detailed examples. He also introduced the groundbreaking PROMAL software, a valuable tool for designing and analyzing structures made of composite materials. Updated and expanded to reflect recent advances in the
Convergence and Developmental Aspects of Credit Allocations in BRICS Nations
This book explores the levels of cooperation and the phenomenon of convergence among BRICS nations. It provides an in-depth look into the financial and banking systems among these rapidly developing economies and the steps they have taken to foster development and counter inequalities. Of the many factors in determining the income and wealth of a country as well as a group of countries, commercial bank credit, a well-known financial indicator, has been an important one. This book analyses the governance and structure of the New Development Bank and its effects on group members for peer growth and to defend against any external economic and political shocks. It looks at how much of an influence the commercial bank credit, or simply the credit, has upon the income levels of the BRICS member countries, how equitable they are, whether they are converging in credits and incomes, and other such issues. It also focuses on India’s credit aspects of inclusiveness and convergence. With a strong empirical model estimation, this book will be of interest to students and researchers of economics, finance, management, political studies, international relations, and international trade.
Tyres in Mining and Allied Sectors: Status and Outlook
Papers presented at the National Seminar on "Tyres in Mining and Allied Sectors : Status and Outlook", held at Dhanbad in 2003.
Points of Departure
In this grass-roots memoir, renowned public policy expert and public transport professional Sudarsanam Padam sketches his life from a small village on the banks of Godavari to an exciting life beyond. He studied while working to graduate from the Nizam College, Hyderabad. His first job was at the age of sixteen in the Census of the Taluk Office (1960). From seventeen onwards, he worked in the Bar Council, Telephone Department and Small Industry Training Institute. With constant encouragement from his lawyer-father, he graduated in 1969. He almost made it to the central civil services. He had a very rewarding career as a manager in the Andhra Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (APSRTC)....
Principles of Sustainable Energy Systems
Completely revised and updated, Principles of Sustainable Energy Systems, Second Edition presents broad-based coverage of sustainable energy sources and systems. The book is designed as a text for undergraduate seniors and first-year graduate students. It focuses on renewable energy technologies, but also treats current trends such as the expanding use of natural gas from fracking and development of nuclear power. It covers the economics of sustainable energy, both from a traditional monetary as well as from an energy return on energy invested (EROI) perspective. The book provides complete and up-to-date coverage of all renewable technologies, including solar and wind power, biological proce...
Large Energy Storage Systems Handbook
In the current push to convert to renewable sources of energy, many issues raised years ago on the economics and the difficulties of siting energy storage are once again being raised today. When large amounts of wind, solar, and other renewable energy sources are added to existing electrical grids, efficient and manageable energy storage becomes a
Contemporary Advances in Innovative and Applicable Information Technology
The book enriches the literature on different sub-domains of applied information technology. The ICCAIAIT Proceedings presents the high quality research papers presented at ICCAIAIT 2018. The contributions cover the contemporary issues in data analytics, computational intelligence, nature inspired computing, cyber physical systems, cloud computing, social network and intelligent computing on climate change. The volume is an important resource for educationists, academics, scholars and practitioners from both the public and private sectors.
Nanotechnology
Winner of a CHOICE Outstanding Academic Book Award 2011! Transistors using one electron at a time. Sunscreens made with titanium dioxide particles that look transparent to our eyes but block harmful UV rays. Nanometer-sized specks of gold that change color to red and melt at 750°C instead of 1064°C. Nanotechnology takes the unique physical properties of items measuring roughly 0.1 to 1000 nanometers and puts them to use. Such applications have made nanotechnology a hot topic, but the search for a true introductory resource usually comes up cold. Nano novices come from a wide variety of backgrounds, so an effective text must assume limited understanding of background material and not be ove...
Energy Conversion
Discussing methods for maximizing available energy, Energy Conversion surveys the latest advances in energy conversion from a wide variety of currently available energy sources. The book describes energy sources such as fossil fuels, biomass including refuse-derived biomass fuels, nuclear, solar radiation, wind, geothermal, and ocean, then provides the terminology and units used for each energy resource and their equivalence. It includes an overview of the steam power cycle, gas turbines, internal combustion engines, hydraulic turbines, Stirling engines, advanced fossil fuel power systems, and combined-cycle power plants. It outlines the development, current use, and future of nuclear fissio...
